The fisherman is a very nice vest. I wear a Harmony FZ 7.7 personally. I like the lower profile and lack of bulky pockets.

And OEX is cheaper , support your local shop . If you stop buy they also will drop you some kayak gear knowledge, not going to get that at REI

What do you know about the Kokatat Bahia Tour Fishing PFD or do you know anyone that uses one? Looks like a nice one too... but I'm new to this sport and have no idea yet... don't even own a kayak yet... just now doing research on all of this.

Also these two look promising too from Kokatat... any thoughts, anyone?

(*Although originally designed for women, this one is unisex and have heard guys like it's fit too... :::shrug?::: )

I own the Kokatat Outfit Tour. The Bahia Tour is the newer version. I believe they fit they same way, but the pockets are in different configurations. I like the pfd. It has an inside pocket as well. It fits tight and allows for good arm movement. It does not have a high back, since it was made for sit-in kayaks. I plan to rework the stitching to make it a high back. I have seen some do it and it does not compromise the integrity of the pfd.

* I just quickly found a link for you. Search around for a better price on the net or hit up your local kayak shop.

** I just noticed your link to the Outfit. The Outfit pfd in your link looks like a winner to me....
